Electric City is a joint project between Prime Cos. and Highbridge Development. C2 Architecture was the architect. Electric City boasts 104 apartments and 12,000 s/f of ground floor retail space.

The three-story building, with apartments and ground floor retail space, stands where there were once empty deteriorating buildings.

The Electric City Apartments offer amenities that include a courtyard and parking garage. The courtyard sits on top of the 116-space parking garage that is 15 ft. off the ground and protected on one side by a short wall. The design ensures only tenants and their guests can access the outdoor area.
